Data Source History:
Jonathan Lowe selected above-ground BART line from the TIGER dataset using a query for "Name contains BART" and converted the results into a separate coverage. Jonathan later corrected the lines were later corrected to digitalorthophoto accuracy. Kyle Draganov added underground lines by selecting them out of the GIS Rail layer.

Quality Check:
Kyle Draganov, Earthwise consulting, checked the BART lines against a Thomas Bros. map and added a connector rail in the 12th St. Station vicinity. Kyle also increased the extent of BART rail coverage on the Richmond line as far as the Ashby BART station.
